LED License Plate Lights

[mlkrouse]

Has any one attempted or figured out how to change the 2022 license plates lights from regular bulbs to lights to LED like the 2021?

I just bought a couple Sylvania 194 LED bulbs and swapped them out. Around $7 each if I remember correctly.

Yep, super easy to do and cheap

I took this advise and happy with the results!

That's hardcore! Lying in the snow to change tag light bulbs.

That was the most head scratching money saving move. Everything on my truck LED other than the license plate lights..

Did they change the bulb style from 2020 to 2022?

Anyone notice “flashing” when in reverse with the leds as opposed to no flashing with the incandescent?

If you buy a decent (i believe its a t10 led bulb), you shouldn't have any issues. I've been doing this on my motorcycles without issue. It's a pretty standard bulb that you can get anywhere.

First thing I did. It is really puzzling why they did this? LED EVERYWHERE except the tag lights? SMH
I bought these and installed a month ago from Amazon, no issues so far.

I guess I should add, I meant flashing in the camera view.

LEDs all flash in a standard camera. It’s how they work.

Honestly - it could be for that very reason they changed these bulbs back to incandescent - strobing lights when trying to hitch a trailer ain’t fun.

Ok that’s what I thought too. I like the look but it was the one thing that annoyed me before.

Now the only thing that annoys me is that the cameras get dirty so easy in any kind of weather. Lol first world problems I guess..

I haven’t noticed this with the sylvania 194s. It’s definitely a bit brighter with a bit more glare in the camera than the incandescent bulbs, but no flashing that I’ve seen and not enough of an issue to make me consider going back.

Must be a Canadian thing, I didn’t think twice about it! Just threw down a towel to keep my coat from getting dirty haha
